Question about glass/silicone work

[WarDog]

How soon do you remove the painters tape (masking) after you lay the silicone? Just did silicone on a new baffle and was just wondering. Thanks in advance!

Personally, I remove it right away before the silicone has a chance to skin over. Once it skins over, and you pull it off, the line will not be as crisp

Yeah, left it too long and had to redo it. Lol. Thanks for the reply!
